The Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus

The death of Jesus on the cross is one of the most significant events in human history, and it continues to have an impact on the world today. For Christians, it is the ultimate expression of God’s love for humanity and is the foundation of our faith. It is believed that Jesus died on the cross as a sacrifice for the sins of humanity. This event is commemorated by Christians worldwide during the Holy Week, which leads up to Easter Sunday. The death of Jesus has been interpreted in many ways throughout history, but at its core, it is a story of sacrifice, love, and redemption.

The death of Jesus on the cross is viewed as the ultimate sacrifice. Christians believe that Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty for the sins of humanity. This sacrifice was necessary to reconcile humanity with God. According to the Bible, all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Humans are born with a sinful nature and are separated from God. However, through the death of Jesus on the cross, humanity can be reconciled with God and receive the gift of salvation.

Theologians have long debated the exact nature of Jesus’ sacrifice, but it is generally agreed that it was an act of love and selflessness. Jesus willingly gave up his life for the sake of others, and his death is seen as a powerful symbol of God’s love for humanity.

The crucifixion of Jesus was a brutal and painful event. Jesus was stripped, beaten, and forced to carry his cross to the place of execution. He was then nailed to the cross and left to die. The crucifixion was a common method of execution in the Roman Empire, but it was reserved for the worst criminals. The fact that Jesus was crucified shows the extent of his suffering and sacrifice.

It is a reminder of the lengths that God was willing to go to show his love for humanity. This is why you should not let this Easter season pass without benefiting from the crucifixion of Jesus. God’s love for humankind is huge, and we have no excuse to reject His love.

While the death of Jesus on the cross is a significant event, it is not the end of the story. Christians believe that Jesus rose from the dead three days after his crucifixion. History confirms that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day. This event, known as the resurrection, is the foundation of the Christian faith. Through the resurrection, Christians believe that Jesus conquered death and made eternal life possible.

The resurrection of Jesus is a powerful symbol of hope and new life. It is a reminder that death is not the end, and that through faith in Jesus, eternal life is possible. The resurrection is celebrated each year by Christians worldwide during Easter, and it is a time to reflect on the power of God’s love and the hope it brings.

The death of Jesus on the cross has had a profound impact on the world, and it continues to inspire and challenge people today. It is a reminder of the power of love, sacrifice, and redemption and a symbol of the hope that is possible through faith. Have you given your life to Jesus and accepted His offer of love for you?

I am Human and I Change Not but …

You have been presenting yourself as someone who doesn’t need any help. You make it look like you are okay. When in public you assume the position of “I am in charge, and I am in control”. You are seen as an accomplished man or woman. It is like you do not need any help. 

But you and I know your real state when you are alone. When you are on your bed, and no one is around, you begin to reflect on life. Why the facade? Your penchant for money has taken you to places. You have done things that only you and God knows. You are praised by the public and the church. You are the only one who knows the source of your wealth. I am not doubting you, but I just want you to be frank with yourself. 

You have become addicted to pornography. A week does not go by without a peep into the naked world. You are drowning in the sea of porno. But you are covering it with active service in the church of God. You have the angelic voice to praise God in church, you have the voice to be called the prayer Papa, and you are praised and adored as a committed child of God. But when the day is over and you are about to sleep and you begin to reflect on your life, you see how deceptive you have become. There is no need to hide, for how long are you going to hide. Pornography will destroy your life

As a single Christian, you have a sex life. Where did you get the sex life from? You have slept with your boyfriend several times and do not feel any conviction to stop. You have become a sex addict. You are unable to stay a week without sex. You treat sex like you treat hunger. You have made it your project to have sex with all the beautiful girls in the church. You brag about it with no shame. You have decided to floor any powerful prayer warrior in the church. You pretend to be spiritual to get close to the spiritual guys. Your main aim is to commit fornication with them and brag about it. Sex means nothing to you but pleasure and makes people miserable. But at the end of the day, you feel used and dirty.

You have said in your heart that you will never commit fornication or adultery. So, you have not had any physically intimate relationship with the opposite sex. This is good. But what you do on social media is more than fornication and adultery. Your chats are more dangerous than a missile. Under the cloak of social media, you are doing things that are equivalent to fornication. You are having phone sex and WhatsApp sex. You can describe your body contours to the opposite without hesitation. Can we read your chats freely and check out your YouTube videos? Or you have been doing these incognito. 

Speaking the truth is like taking very bitter medicine. You are quick to tell a lie and make it look like the perfect truth. We have no idea about what you are saying but we trust you. Meanwhile, you have been lying all through. You lie in church, in school, in the market, everywhere. It has become part of your regular life. All liars will have their part in the lake.

We are immune to holiness. We do not want to hear anything about morality. Interestingly, we cry when thieves steal from us, we are unhappy when we are deceived by others, and we are ready to kill when someone has sex with our underage child. A husband that cheats does not want the wife to cheat too. A thief wants to protect his possessions. You claim we are all not perfect but expect perfection from the other person. You do not want the politician to be corrupt, but you are requesting sex before you grade that student. 

If the world can become a good place to live, then there should be some element of morality we all subscribe to. We are born sinners, but we can become good through one man called Jesus. Yes, Jesus is the only source of hope. Consider Jesus.
